Hora Atual em Akanda, Gabão — WAT.

Akanda National Park is located just north of Libreville, Gabon's capital city. It is also one of 13 National Parks in Gabon set up in 2002 by President Omar Bongo after a two-year study by the Directorate of Widlife and Hunting, WCS and WWF. The 13 national parks are designed to represent the biodiversity of the country and encourage tourism. Akanda National Park is located in the north-west of the country, near Libreville, with coastline along the Mondah and Corisco bays.

Distance-wise, Akanda is closest to Dubai (~5,635 km), London (~5,729 km), São Paulo (~6,606 km); Sydney is the far end at roughly 14,592 km. That ordering matters more than the timezone label for travel planning.

Akanda sits inside Gabão — the Middle Africa subregion, capital Libreville, languages French, currency XAF (Fr).

Around Akanda, the nearest mapped reference cities are Libreville (28 km), Owendo (40 km), Ntoum (54 km), Bata (148 km); treat them as the de-facto regional cluster for WAT planning.
